VII. Sanctions

A disciplinary hold is placed on the student’s records when a Student Behavior Referral is submitted to the Dean of Students. This hold will not allow the student to register for future classes until the disciplinary charge(s) specified on the referral are resolved. The following sanctions may be imposed upon any student found to have violated the Student Code:

1. Warning - notice in writing to the student that the student is violating or has violated institutional regulations.
2. Probation - a written reprimand for violation of specified regulations. Probation is for a designated period of time and includes the probability of more severe disciplinary sanctions if the student is found to be violating any institutional regulation(s) during the probationary period.
3. Loss of Privileges - denial of specified privileges not a designated period of time. This would include but not be limited to: loss of a specific or all computer privileges, loss of access to any college facility or activity.

6. Discretionary Sanctions - work assignments, service to the College or other related discretionary assignments (such assignments must have the prior approval of the Dean of Students). Students found to have violated the College's drug/alcohol policy will be required to complete an accredited drug/alcohol education or treatment program.
7. Residence Hall Suspension - separation of the student from the residence halls for a definite period of time, after which the student is eligible to return. Conditions for readmission may be specified.
8. Residence Hall Expulsion - permanent separation of the student from the residence halls.

A SECOND VIOLATION OF THE STUDENT CODE OF CONDUCT WILL RESULT IN SUSPENSION OR EXPULSION FROM SNOW COLLEGE.

Interim Suspension:
In certain circumstances, the Dean of Students or a des­ignee, may impose a College or residence-hall suspension prior to the hearing before a Judicial body, within a reasonable period of time.

Interim suspension may be imposed only to ensure the safety and well being of members of the College Community or preservation of College property; this includes such actions as; threatening or inflicting bodily harm on oneself or others; inflicting serious emotional or mental distress or fear on others; creating a substantial disruption of normal campus functions, including campus instruction; presenting a threat to the stability and continuance of any normal College function; being arrested on misdemeanor or felony charges; hindering or impeding the progress of any academic; non-academic, or activities group on campus.

During the interim suspension, students shall be denied access to the residence halls and/or to the campus (including classes) and/or all other College activities or privileges for which the student might otherwise be eligible, as the Dean of Students or the judicial body may determine to be appropriate.

Other than College expulsion, disciplinary sanctions shall not be made part of the student’s permanent academic record, but shall become part of the student’s confidential record. Upon graduation, the student’s confidential record may be expunged of disciplinary actions other than residence-hall expulsion, College suspension or College expulsion, upon application to the Dean of Students. Cases involving the imposition of sanctions other then residence-hall expulsion, College suspension or College expulsion, shall be expunged from the student’s confidential record three years after final disposition of the case.

The following sanctions may be imposed upon groups or organizations:

• Those sanctions listed above (1) through (5)
• Deactivation — loss of all privileges, including Col­lege recognition, for a specified period of time.
